2  A SOURCE OF ENERGY is where humans get energy from Example: solar energy, wind energy, oil, etc

3  A renewable source is an energy source that will ALWAYS be used. It will never run out Example: solar energy is renewable because the sun will always be in the sky! Wind energy is renewable because there will always be wind!

4  A non-renewable source is a source that will NOT always be used. It will run out some day. Example: oil is a non-renewable source because it is made from plants/animals that died millions of years ago. So when humans use all the oil, there will be no more!

5  A fossil fuel is: oil, natural gas, coal  Fossil fuels come from plants and animals that died MILLIONS of years ago. Humans get these fuels under the Earth. Fossil fuels

6 Renewable EnergyNon-renewable Energy Wind energyOil Solar energyCoal BiomassNatural gas Geothermal energyNuclear HydroelectricFossil fuels

7  Sun  solar panals  electricity

8  Wind  turns turbines  creates electricity

9  Get energy from burning plants Burn plants  heat water  water vapor turns turbines  electricity

10  Take heat energy from under the Earth to make energy

11  Water goes through turbines. The turbines turn. Electric energy is produced

12  These fossil fuels are burned to heat water. The water vapor turns turbines and makes electric energy

13  Divide uranium particles to make heat  the heat makes water boil  water vapor turns turbines  electricity is made
